46. INSTALLATION OF OIL SEALUsing the special tool, install the drive shaft oil seal.
I -.,44.143. INSTALLATION OF SPACER
(1) Place two pieces of approximately 10 mm (39 in.) long,
1.6 mm
(.06 in.) dia. solder at the locations shown on
the transaxle case and install each outer race.
(2) Place two pieces of approximately
10 mm (.39 in.) long,
1.6 mm
(.06 in.) dia. solder at the locations shown on
the bearing outer race.
(3) Install the transaxle case, and tighten bolts to
specifiea-
tion.(4) Remove the transaxle case.
(5) Remove the outer races and remove the solder.
(6) If the solder is not broken, carry out the work in steps
(l)-(5) with large diameter solder.
(7) Using a micrometer, measure the thickness of the
flattened solder and select a spacer of a thickness that
gives the specified end play and preload.
Standard values:
Front output shaft preload
0.08-0.13 mm (.0031-.005 in.)
Front differential case end play
0.05-0.17 mm (.0020-.a07 in.)

27. INSTALLATION OF TRANSAXLE CASE ADAPTER
Apply sealant (liquid gasket) to the transaxle case side of
the transaxle case adapter assembly.
Specified sealant: Mitsubishi genuine sealant Part
No. MD997740 or equivalent
Caution
Squeeze out sealant from the tube uniformly without
excess or discontinuities.
25. INSTALLATION OF STEEL BALL
Move the center shaft so that the steel ball is seated
securely into the groove in center shaft.
23. INSTALLATION OF SNAP RING
Select the snap ring so that the end play in the viscous
coupling is up to specification.
Standard value:
0.1-0.26 mm (.0039-.OlO in.)
18. INSTALLATION OF SHIFT FORK/17.

pinion shaft into the center differential case.
z
(2) Select and install the thickest spacer that ensures
smooth and light rotation of the pinion gear when
turned while holding the pinion shaft.
(3) Install the side gear, spacer, and output flange, and
tighten bolts to specification.
(4) Select and install the thickest spacer, that allows
smooth rotation of side gear.
(5) Make sure that the two side gears turn smoothly.
Standard value:
Center differential pinion backlash

Using the special tool, press-fit the taper roller bearing into
position.Caution
@*Apply the special tool to the inner race only when
.___installing the bearing.
2. INSTALLATION BOLTS
Apply adhesive to the entire thread section of the bolts andquickly tighten bolts to specification in the order shown.
Specified adhesive: MOPAR Part No.4318031
or MOPAR Part No.4318032
or equivalent
NOTEIf the bolts are to be reused, completely remove the old
adhesive from the threads.
